Solvolysis of the following bicyclic compound in acetic acid gives a mixture of products, two of which are shown. The leaving group is the anion of a sulfonic acid, ArSO,H. A sulfonic acid is a strong acid, and its anion, ARSO, , is a weak base and a good leaving group. Propose a mechanism for this reaction. voso OČCH, CH,COH
